This month there are 18 eCatalogues posted to section III of AE Monthly.  Together they represent more than a thousand interesting possibilities drawn from a variety of collecting disciplines.

While the material is appealing so too are the firms offering material in this way.  Ten years hence such catalogues will be commonplace.  Today they are exotic, a bit ahead of their time.  Whether a collector, librarian or dealer you are looking at the future.
